On Tuesday Of this week County Attorney

which was recently forwarded him from Green

For value received promise 10 pay, on demand

When this note was given Col. Burbank was
an iEnate Of Columbia Prison, unwiIlngly par

Among his companions was William Wash

advantages that Confederate money could pur-

among bis comrades in sums Of $50 each. taxi
ing their notes therefor. The $50 was then
only worth $40 in United States money, but
nevertheless IL enabled the prisoners TO obtain

actual condition of the rebel affairs which
well could be imagined.
Lee was ON the skirmish-line in 'front.' Of
Humphreys, awaiting his proposal for an in
terview with Gen. Grant, as late as III a m.
9th Of April, 1865. Lee continually urged
the halting Of the combined Second-Third
Corps; proposals to which Humphreys did
not feel
AUTHORIZED TO ACCEDE.
The rebel force facing the combined Second
Third Corps was intrenched fully breast
high, and had an abatis of feIled trees in
'front.'" Holding these intrenehments were
more than 5000 men, actually seen by Col
W. III. Paine. Curious to say, the last rebel
array in front Of the corps which bore as its
badge the trefoil or three-leaf clover was at
Clover Hill, and the last hostile bullet was
fred at Col. Whittier, of humphreys staff,
an old Second-ThiTd Corps man.
The combined Second Third Corps were
closing in on Longstreet, within three miles
to the eastward of AppomattOx Court house,
when Meade overlook Humphreys and told
him that suspension of arms had been
agreed upon until 2 I'm. Atthat hour Hum
phreys advanced again, and had gone about
100 yards, when he was again halted close up
against Lee. Il think" wrote Col Paine, the

run of their leaders, were very impatient
They suspected some rebel trickery. Let
us finish up the matter" they cried, before
night comes on again. If they do not in
tend to surrender,
LET Us Go IN AT ONCE"
Grants terms to Lee may have been very
magnanimOus, but they were very unjust to
his own troops. Bismarck was more con-
sistent when he spoke Of the qualification
due to a triumphant army when that op-
posed to it is compelled to surrender or when
garrison is forced to capituIate." A letter
from the field contains paragraph which is
worthy of consideration: When, however,
it was known how completely the eneay
had been in our power, some of the troops
were little distressed at the magnanimity
Of the terms OfFered.n
Sheridan, if correctly reported, wanted
to "go in and finish up those people," 1t
would have saved the country great deal Of
trouble if he had been allowed to do so.
The war virtually ended with the surren-
der of Lee. Every succeeding shot was
nothing more than the distant and dying
echoes of the thunderbolt which burst be-
tween the Appomattox and the James. Then,
as when the clouds first gathered, the rattle
of the Third Corps musketry, and the roar
Of their guns, blent with the awful uproar
which ushered in and which terminated the
great American conflict. oh, glorious body
